Self-immolation of Aaron Bushnell
-
Lol fuck Netanyahu.
Don't be a blowhard. -
Your point being?
-
Fuck the state of Israel, fuck its propaganda machine, fuck the genocide, fuck netanyahu. I feel for the citizens of Israel who are against the war and have little power to stop it.
-
Go ahead post some pro-genocide/Israeli stuff around lemmy see where it gets ya
-
LOL, you do realize that suggesting it's "anti-Israeli" to oppose genocide is itself incredibly "anti-Israeli" right?

A Secret Service officer approached the scene, aimed a gun at Bushnell off-camera, and ordered him to "get on the ground" multiple times while a police officer yelled: "I don't need guns, I need fire extinguishers!"
That's about right. Someone set themself on fire so let me draw my gun and order him around.

Shortly before the Biden Terror Pier in Gaza was announced, which would go on to provide zero aid to Palestinians despite docking in Gaza for 6 months, and helped facilitate the murder of 200 Palestinian civilians in the Nusseirat Massacre.
He was likely aware of preparation for the operation, which drove him to this protest. God rest his soul.
-
It's very tragic that he took is own life. By staying alive, he had the potential to turn his life around and do a lot of good. This act should really be discouraged in the future. Don't ruin yourself and give the Zionist scum something to gloat over.
